Dogmas—religious, political, scientific—arise arise out of the erroneousbelief that thought can encapsulate reality or the truth. Dogmas arecollective conceptual prisons. And the strange thing is that people lovetheir prison cells because they give them a sense of security and a falsesense of "I know."
